I read a couple of stories in the media a few months ago that people in Florida were reputed to have been filling up their gas tank to full to go line up at the food bank.
The food bank in America story is interesting because, well, it is an economic story, such numbers probably not reflected accurately in the official story they want us to believe.
What happens to labour in the developing world? The labour market is characteristic by unemployment and under-employment.
When we see bread lines, we can safely assume one or the other is in effect.
Also, what about the future if the robots are coming for our jobs? The third world labour conditions, affectionately known as shit holes countries by our most favourite president, of unemployment and under-employment has the real potential to be a permanent feature of the system.

Remember the Occupy Wall Street Movement? I remember those protestors so vividly, because they knew they had to protest, but could not explain anything.
